So I have been found to be guilty of judging a book by its cover a time or two...and today I had one of those moments of realization...guys are really teddy bears on the inside and rough dirt roads on the outside. Yes I made up that terrible metaphor (working on that) but isn't it so true! I had a talk with an old friend today who always gave off a tough man demeanor but today I found out he is one of the nicest, most considerate, and fun loving persons I have met. So why is it that men always have to give off the 'tough guy' image? Cultural Socialization...yes I know..but I think that women need to give these guys chances, because really there is such a beautiful person underneath the gravel.
